PER CURIAM.
In our original opinion in this case, we reversed the trial court?s order granting summary
disposition to defendant and denying plaintiff permission to file a second amended complaint.
Thereafter, the Supreme Court vacated our opinion for reconsideration in light of their opinion in
Bryant v Oakpointe Villa Nursing Center, 471 Mich 411; 684 NW2d 864 (2004).
After reviewing the decision in Bryant, we are satisfied that our original analysis and
holding in this case is consistent with the reasoning in Bryant. Accordingly, we reaffirm our
original opinion and reverse the trial court?s order and remand for proceedings consistent with
this opinion. The trial court should, of course, apply Bryant to any future issues in this case as
the need may arise. We do not retain jurisdiction.
